Okay but I want to buy it this way I don't want to have to add things as I go. I just want a Denali without a 6 L engine. Does anybody know if that is possible? Or is it truly possible to get an SLT with everything like a Denali with the exception of the Denali decal and 6 L engine?

Nope, you cannot get an SLT with all the Denali trim and options ... the only way to achieve that is to add them afterwards.

The Denali also has the softer leather seats and the Autoride suspension. I would rather burn a little more gas and be in my Denali than have every option BUT the 6.2L. Everyone is different though. I would say test drive both and the choice should be easy.

You'll want the 6L engine once you've been driving this truck for a while. They are big and heavy so take a lot of power to move it from a stopped position. You think you don't need it now, but wait till you drive it.

You can get the ventilated seats in the SLT. Option KB6 - Heated and Cooled Front Seats ($572)

IMO the 5.3L is too small for a big heavy vehicle like the Yukon or XL and the mpg isn't anything to write home about with either motor.

There are quite a few differences between SLT and Denali besides the powertrain. Chrome rear bumper trim, hitch cover, door handles, grille, sill plates, chrome roof rails, extra sound dampening material, etc. etc. Some can be ordered as options but not all.

Even if I could come up with another 4-5k, I am used to getting 16.8-17mpg consistently in my Tundra, what is the real expectation for the 6 liter Denali?
